Thank you for your reply. My problem actually turned out to be a bug which support has submitted to the programmers. When you're printing an individual report, if you check the box 'include chronology pages' then whatever font size you selected for sources is ignored and the source citations are printed in a font about the size of 8 pt. This bug only exists on the individual report - the family group report and the report generated from the chronology view work fine.
